Praxis monitors used to identify particulate hotspots at HS2 site
A new academic study shows that low-cost sensors can be used to identify hotspots of particulate emissions on an industrial site, so the sources of harmful emissions can be easily found and mitigated. The sensors were also used to filter out background air pollution levels, meaning, the effects of site-specific emissions can be accurately measured. This study was led by a team of ...

Reasons Why CO2 Gas Detection is Necessary
Carbon dioxide, or CO2, occurs naturally in the environment. Living organisms rely on it as a part of their metabolic processes. Yet, in confined spaces, exposure to this colorless, odorless gas can cause a wide array of health issues. In industrial settings, employees are more susceptible to exposure. As a result, they could experience dizziness, tiredness, headaches, and an increased heart ...
